NEW...Victims Of Violent Crime, published 8/30/2007 8/31/2007 5:59:39 AM
...something inside me broke. It was as if someone had taken a lovely crystal glass and crushed it with one tight squeeze. Shattering it into tiny fragments. My entire body was thousands of slivers of glass that had broken with three simple words, “They are gone.”
At that moment my life changed. The uphill battle had just begun. Throughout this long and painful journey were days and nights of highs and lows with the highs too shallow and the lows a frightening depth to climb above.
It is natural to feel alone, desolate and lost with the sudden loss of our loved ones from a violent crime.
It is the same for everyone when they become a victim of violent crime… shock and disbelief.
In such a brief second all has changed.
We search for others to understand what we are going through and for them to know, just an ounce, of the agony and pain we feel.
We know that violent crimes occur every day. However, they are not supposed to happen to us. Right?
So, what do we do now? How do we cope? What questions do we ask? Where do we find the answers? How do we go on?
It took many years after the loss of my family to learn how to cope and survive, day to day, minute by minute.
I hope that I can offer some help and insight for you as a fellow victim of violent crime.
There are many victims of violent crime in the same situation as you. We are all struggling together to make sense of these crimes. We all work for the same goal.
Hopefully this book will help to understand the victims world and help victims to move forward.
Will be Available online at Amazon.com, Borders, Waldenbooks, Barnes & Noble in early September 2007 and in bookstores Fall of 2007
